I am developing one application using core java and Mysql Database. As i read in Most of the site, they suggest that use type 4 driver for communication using JDBC.

In JDBC Connection i have use mysql-connector-java-5.1.24-bin.jar from Connector J 5.1.20.0 folder of Mysql 5.6.

My questions are.

1) mysql-connector-java-5.1.24-bin.jar this one is which type of Driver.?

2) I want to use only for development purpose not to deploy so which one more suitable for me?

3) from where i'll get that drivers for development?

In order to connect the Java application with the database you need the connector. You need to the mysql-connector.jar to connect the application with mysql database. It need to add both for standalone as well as for web application. You can download the .jar file from here. https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/j/3.1.html
